I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers.
There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
Hi, I'm Hayley and we moved to Morrinsville just over a year ago to escape the suburbs. Most people know me by the two kids creating chaos in my wake but I'm also a huge fan of all things creative including knitting, sewing, painting, scrapbooking, baking or building a chicken coop.
Hello my name is Malcolm Gapes. I am a registered marriage Celebrant and play a tuba. I am part of the Katikati Concert Band and Tauranga City brass band. Love watching cricket and golf from the comfort of my favourite armchair!

Now in 2023, Dickey has moved to Auckland with his wife Glenda to be closer to their grandkids. Navigating city life brings plenty of laughs, until COVID strikes, putting Dickey to the test. But in true Dickey style, he rallies—older, wiser, and still full of heart.
Starring Gavin Rutherford, who brings Dickey to life with humour and charm.
